English term or phrase: to pack ..with
In a famous decision issued in 1905 (Lochner v. New York), the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a New York State law restricting the maximum hours of work for bakery employees. The New York statute was “an illegal interference,” the justices wrote, “with the right of individuals, both employers and employees, to make contracts regarding labor upon such terms as they may think best.” See Michael J. Sandel, Democracy’s Discontent: America in a Search of a Public Philosophy (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1996), p. 41. It wasn’t until the 1930s, following Franklin D. Roosevelt’s threat to pack the Court with sympathetic jurists, that the Supreme Court reversed course and upheld a minimum wage law for women in 1937
